Yes. I wasn't wanting "power" stuff, just something more robust than mozilla, and slightly more capable than gnumeric. I have noticed that staroffice files tend to be even bigger than the MS formats they replace. : Though I am running gnome desktop now, it is not needed for : StarOffice. I know. It mentions kde during install. I tried both. : Did you try to do a : # make deinstall && make clean && make install : in staroffice's ports directory? Sort of. I actually did something more like: pkg_delete ...; make install I'm not sure about the clean, though I probably had to do it to get make past the .stamp files it keeps... I could mv my local and X11R6 aside and reinstall things from scratch off the 4.* CDROMs, to see if it's any better, although that requires installing from earlier CDROMs before using later ones. (Not everything I use is on every release, and it's nasty having an older set of prerequisites overwrite lovingly crafted updates to them.) It's a good thing I've been doing "make package" recently. Or I could just revert to my old story "I can't read that at home, you'll have to wait until I'm at work".
